Overview[]
Similar to Gardening, Incubation is one of the many features introduced during the Ratboy's Nightmare Update. It is a small feature that players can participate in the incubation process of salamander eggs.
Salamander eggs are collectibles that can be bought from vendors in The Nightmare, such as No-Legs and the Green Golem. These eggs can be placed in respective plots of land containing 4 available plots. There are 20 plots in total, four plots in Topple Hill, in the market (very close to Mr. Sims), four plots in The Town of Right and Wrong, eight plots in Farm Fortress, and four plots in the Abandoned Orchard. To unlock 4 additional plots of the 8 plots in Farm Fortress, the player must complete the Farm Fortress Defense Quest.
Notes[]
- Please keep in mind that while purchasing a salamander egg, the salamander that hatches may not be the exact same color as its egg. There is a guaranteed chance for Black, White, and Golden Salamander Eggs to hatch the salamanders of their respective colors. However, other eggs such as the Orange, Green, and Purple Salamander Eggs may hatch out the default, normal salamander instead.
Tiers[]
There are three different tiers for specific types of salamander, which includes:
- Tier 1 - The default, or normal, version of the Salamander. This refers to the normal Salamander, having a base attack of 50 damage points.
- Tier 2 - The standard colors of the Salamander; green, orange, and purple. These have a base attack of 80 damage points and only draw from certain damage-types.
- Tier 3 - The 'special colors' of the Salamander; white, black, and golden. These have a base attack of 120 damage points, with the exception of white, which has a base attack of only 100.

Trivia[]
- The normal Salamander Egg was actually known as the Swamp Salamander during the development of Ratboy's Nightmare Update.
- Salamanders in the European heraldry are very often seen as either fire lizards or fire dragons, that is most likely the reason why the developers choose the salamander to act like a "dragon".
